Chapter 30: The City of Kings

As soon as the middle-aged man came in, Xia Yu knew that he didn't need to be in the following matters, and looked at Xia Chengfeng, who was sitting aside.

Xia Chengfeng looked at Xia Yu and smiled helplessly, then his face sank, and with a "snap", he slapped the table fiercely and said, "Bold, who is coming? Why don't you salute when you see Prince Ben?"

The middle-aged man was suddenly startled by Xia Chengfeng, looked up at Xia Chengfeng, looked puzzled, and said, "I am Zhao Ming, the city lord of Huanggang City, I don't know who you are?"

Xia Chengfeng said: "I am Xia Chengfeng, the sixth son of King Xia. ”

Xia Chengfeng took out a purple token and shook it in front of Zhao Ming, only to see that the token was the size of a palm, surrounded by purple gas, indescribably noble, and there was a big six characters written on the token.

Zhao Ming's face suddenly changed when he saw the token, and he stood in place blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xia Chengfeng put away the token and said with a majestic face: "Zhao Ming, do you still doubt my identity now?"

"Don't dare, Huanggang City Lord Zhao Ming has seen the Sixth Highness. Zhao Ming bowed and said, and the people behind him also bowed and saluted together.

Zhao Yue's face was pale and trembling when he saw the token, obviously scared.

"His Royal Highness Sixth has been the city lord of Yucheng for many years, I don't know what you have to do when you come to Huanggang City this time?" Zhao Mingming said with a calm face although he was respectful.

"This time I was just passing by, Zhao Mingcheng Lord, you came at the right time, someone assassinated His Highness just now, and I asked Zhao City Lord to deal with it impartially. Xia Chengfeng smiled, looked at Zhao Ming and Zhao Yue behind Zhao Ming, and said.

Zhao Ming looked at Xia Chengfeng, then at Zhao Yue behind him, turned his eyes and bowed and said: "The dog has been crazy since he was a child, and he doesn't want to bump into the Sixth Highness this time, I hope that the Sixth Highness has a large number of adults, don't care." ”

Xia Chengfeng looked at Zhao Ming and didn't speak for a long time, and there was a sudden silence in the private room, and the needle drop could be heard.

"Haha, I see, I still think that Zhao City Lord Zongzi committed murder, it seems that I am wrong to blame Zhao City Lord, forget about this matter. Xia Chengfeng said with a smile.

"Thank you for the magnanimity of the Sixth Highness, since the Sixth Highness has come down to Huanggang City, please move to the City Lord's Mansion to rest, so that I can entertain Your Highness well. Zhao Ming said.

"No need, we will leave tomorrow, so we won't trouble City Lord Zhao. Xia Chengfeng said.

So the villain took his leave. Zhao Ming said.

"City Lord Zhao is going well. Xia Chengfeng said with a smile.

After Zhao Mingming left with Zhao Yue and the others, Gao Haoran said: "City Lord, Zhao Mingming is too rude, completely ignoring your majesty, and should be severely punished." ”

"Second Elder, I'm just a prince who has lost power, Zhao Mingming has the support of the Sima family behind him, and I know that I can't help him, so I made up a reason, so that we both have a reason to go down the steps, if I don't agree, then what do you say, Zhao Mingming will definitely not punish his son, and he doesn't have the courage to make a move, then things will freeze there, it's not easy to do, so I had to go down the slope and get off the donkey, who let me only have the name of the prince, and no prince's rights, if I am replaced by a powerful prince, even if I give Zhao Mingming a hundred guts, I don't dare to do this, all the face is not given by others, but earned by myself, if you want others to give you face, you must have the strength of others to give you face, otherwise the prince's name is just a joke. Xia Chengfeng said calmly, his eyes kept looking at Xia Yu, as if he was talking to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu looked at Xia Chengfeng's gaze and smiled, but did not speak.

As a result of this incident, everyone lost interest in eating and went back to their rooms.

Xia Yu followed Xia Chengfeng to Xia Chengfeng's room, and after the father and son sat down, Xia Yu said: "Dad, you prince is too cowardly, I decided to crush the younger generation after I go to Wangcheng, standing under the most eye-catching halo, I want you to get the respect you deserve." ”

"Yu'er, your mother and I are used to the peaceful life now, and we don't want to fight with those people, but if you want to fight, I don't object, your mother and I will stand behind you and support you, but then you have to be careful of those traps in the open and in the dark. Xia Chengfeng said.

"Dad, I don't want to fight for anything, I just want everyone to be respectful when they see me, and there is a feeling of powerlessness to resist when they see me. Xia Yu said.

"Yu'er, it's good that you have grown up and have your own ideas, but in this way, your troubles will continue, and you have to be ready. Xia Chengfeng looked at his son dotingly.

"I know that I want to stand in the most visible place and enjoy everyone's attention, and I don't want to leave any regrets in this life. Xia Yu said proudly.

"Yu'er, do what you want, your mother and I are waiting for the moment when your fame is shining brightly. Xia Chengfeng said, the ambition that had already cooled in his heart was flickering again, and men should be like this.

The moon sets in the west, the sun rises in the east, and when the first rays of sunlight shine on the earth, a new day begins, marking the rise of a radiant name.

Xia Chengfeng and Xia Yu and others rode unicorns in the direction of Wangcheng, and when they just walked to the city gate, they saw Zhao Ming standing at the city gate with a few people, and when they saw Xia Chengfeng and others coming, Zhao Ming hurriedly walked a few steps, bowed down and said: "Zhao Ming has seen the Sixth Highness." ”

"City Lord Zhao, what do you mean by this?" Xia Chengfeng asked as he sat on the unicorn.

"The villain knew that His Royal Highness the Sixth was leaving today, so he came to see him off, and by the way, he apologized for the matter of the dog, and was slightly asked by Bo Li to accept the Sixth Highness and use it on the road. Zhao Mingming said with a smile.

Xia Chengfeng looked at Zhao Minghe and the two boxes on the ground and smiled, and said, "City Lord Zhao has a heart, I accepted this gift." ”

Zhao Mingming saw Xia Chengfeng accept the gift, and suddenly looked relaxed, and said: "I won't delay the time of the Sixth Highness, I wish the Sixth Highness a smooth journey." ”

A few people rode out of Huanggang City on unicorns, and Gao Haoran said: "City Lord, this Zhao Ming apologized to you, he is still afraid of you." ”

"Zhao Mingming is a smart person, although I am not powerful, but after all, I am a prince, he doesn't want to offend me, this is to be soft and leave a way for the future. Xia Chengfeng said.

"The lord of the city is wise. Gao Haoran said with a slap.

······

Time flies, three days later, Xia Chengfeng and Xia Yu saw a magnificent city appear in everyone's eyes from a distance, like a giant beast lying on the plain, majestic, the king's spirit filled the air, shocking the Quartet.
